1.	See for example the Catriona II project, which discovered that quality resources were being created in Scottish Universities,'However, since they are not being created with the aim of wider access and use, they are mostly not networked, difficult to find, or in difficult to access formats'. These findings might reasonably be expected to be extrapolated to other UK institutions and by no means confined to the higher education sector.

5.	For example, the PRO's strategy states that preservation systems must be capable of providing a guarantee of rates of data loss no greater than 1 in 100,000 for data surrogates and 1 in 100,000,000 for "born digital" objects where no originals exist from which to re-create the object. Source: A Digital Preservation Strategy for the PRO. 1999. 3.6.3.
6.	For example it has been reported that it costs about $5-7 per megabyte per year to retain electronic engineering records in the US but about $1250 per megabyte to re-create them. See http://ssdoo.gsfc.nasa.gov/nost/isoas/us01/minutes.html. Costs involved in creating other digital resources, e.g. satellite or archaeological data may be higher. In addition, the data may be unique and unrecoverable if destroyed.
